RIP, Larry "Bud" Melman

I'm watching the show right now and Sandler's having a rough go at it. Thankfully he's taking it in stride though. "I really suck at this. I'm sorry."

 

Dude is so right. Sandler was not built for this duty. Rather pathetic to see Danica Patrick trying to help him through it.

And RIP to Mr. Larry.

 

It would be fitting for him to be buried in two T-shirts. R.I.P.

 

Good. That means I'm still in the running for the co-host job.

 

My condolences go out to his son, Larry "Chip" Melman


DeForest always cracked me up. I remember when Dave sent him on the North American Goodwill Tour in a motorhome and he got homesick about halfway through.

RIP

 

I remember a few years ago on a Letterman anniversary show, he did a tribute to Larry. He talked about how Larry had died in the last year and how much everyone missed him. They showed a bunch of clips of Larry's greatest moments, and I was thinking, I don't remember him dying. As Letterman wrapped up the memorial, Larry comes out and says something like, "I'm not dead you jackass."

I laughed my ass off.

 

Holy shit. I don't think I've seen that since it first aired. My god, that was fucking hilarious.

I remember hearing that Larry Bud's day job was a drug counselor, and that he kept it for a while after he started appearing on Letterman, but that he had to be transferred out of the job because down-on-their-luck people weren't exactly thinking their life was going in the right direction by having Larry "Bud" Melman helping with their rehab.

 

Ahhh.... whatever happened to Meg Parsont?

 

Abe Vigoda outlived another one.

(Someone had to say it.)

 

That's just wrong.

 

The first thing I thought of when I saw this thread title was hot towels; the second was toast on a stick. God bless Larry "Bud," living or dead.
